McGimmick: McReligiousNutcase going for "Town Hall" style acceptance speech
So Obama delivered his speech in front of 80,000, McTwit is having his stage reconfigured to push him closer not to the everyman, but to his loyal delegates and GOP hate hounds. :rofl:

On the downside, I can hear the post-speech media whores ejaculating all over it already.

"John McCain likes to be in and around people," said Rick Davis, his campaign manager. "And I think gives John a unique ability to position himself around the people he likes to be with."

2. Elizabeth Dole Did That In 96
She came off looking like a lounge act...

4. I hope he take something else from the Dole ticket...
..namely that he falls over at some sort of public event. Like it did Dole, it'll really hammer home the fact that he's no younger than 96.

3. On a serious note...
in 2004, he was able to deliver a pretty great (delivery not content) speech at the RNC convention, if Palin is a weak heatbeat away from the POTUS, his diminishing capacity scares me :scared:
